Swimming caps for the open water

Here at Sea Swim Cornwall we’ve been working hard to create and add to our swimming cap ranges. We started a year or two ago with our standard event swimming caps. From there we then created the St Michael’s Mount and St Ives swimming caps.

Late in 2021 Tom took inspiration from our Swimfari event and created a range of ‘Swimfari’ swimming caps - including a bright blue & yellow Zebra design, a Leopard skin and Alligator design quickly followed.

Tom really started to enjoy designing these caps and has since worked on a range of swimming caps based on retro 70s wallpaper and upholstery designs, as well as getting a number of swimming caps printed in the UK (which is rare!), based around some of Sea Swim Cornwall most popular logos.

Most of these swimming caps are very bright and incorporate patterns that are easy to spot from a distance. For the sake of some epic designs some of the swim caps are a little darker…but we figure if you’re swimming with a tow float, swimming in the pool / lido or on a safe route your swimming cap doesn’t always need to be brighter than the sun!

Looking forward we’ll continue to design and look to add to our current collection.

We’re also open to working with groups. If you’d like a specific logo or design made up and some swimming caps…get in touch! We can offer some very good rates.

Swimfari Range of swimming caps

A friend of Tom’s used the term ‘Swimfari’ a while back and it got the creative juices flowing. Not only did we go onto name one of our event using the term but Tom then designed a whole range of swimming caps. He tried a number of designs that didn’t quite work and then…just went with nature! Simply using the natural patterns of a number of wild animals.

Tom spent over 10 seasons beach lifeguarding and designed these swimming caps to not only be stylish but also very visible in the water. As well as incorporating bright colours, they also include patterns. When you look out to sea any distinctive, different colours or patterns really stand out and these swimming caps include both.

At the time of writing they’re a pre-order option only but will be in stock very soon.

The images below are a mock up of the swimming caps. All seamless, thick silicon swimming caps. We’ll look to add to these designer swimming caps in the near future.
